The goal of terrorism is to divide Americans, and a demonstration against a mosque will do exactly that.
A grim wager that I would make is that the victims of the attacks include Muslims as well as Jews and Christians, and Arab-Americans as well as people with European origins.
We're all in this together, and we are going to need to show some patience. My full comments are at http://arnoldkling.com/~arnoldsk/aimst4/aimst426.html
Yesterday I heard some Indian guy saying that Sikhs have been coming under attack because they wear turbans and beards. I myself have been trying to be extra courteous to anybody who looks Middle Eastern 'cause they're going to need it. One the other hand, I have been trying to avoid any kind of discussions with them on the matter... I know if I hear someone try to justify this or say ``now you know how us Palestinians fell'', I'm just gonna to have to rage on them.
